Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.

Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

Unofficial Forum Stylesheet - Ye Olde Style

What this is:
A stylesheet is a way of arranging the presentation elements of a website. This is most commonly accomplished through CSS, which is a basic scripting language which stores information on how each element on a site should look. Any website's stylesheet can be overridden by the end-user, if they have the appropriate browser and/or addons. Ye Olde Style is one such custom style, which overrides many elements of the design of the new forum and replaces its aesthetic with one fairly close to that of the old Penny Arcade forums before the switch from vBB to Vanilla.

How you can use it:
I don't know how they're applied for Internet Explorer users, but Chrome can use them by itself (although not always perfectly). Typically, they're used through Firefox with the Stylus addon, and this is what the development is based around. Once you have Stylus installed, simply go to to the style's page on userstyles.org, and click "Install Style". It's that easy. You should have a little S icon at the top right of the screen, and by right-clicking that, you can enable and disable the style.

Is it kept up to date:
Yes. I browse Penny Arcade daily and use this style all the time, so any brokenness will annoy me. That's good reason for me to keep things updated as the forum grows and changes. If anything looks broken or just 'off', say so in the thread and I'll have a look into it. Updates can be installed either through the Stylish section in the Firefox Addons menu, or by going to the userstyles page and clicking update.

On my PMs list, there's no indication of who each conversation is with. Without the stylesheet there's an avatar and "You, *Whoever*", but with the stylesheet on it's just part of the last message, number of messages, and date. Could the avatar and/or name be added back? They're very helpful when there's a whole bunch of conversations and I want to find a particular one.

Updated style to account for them. Looks like they got an improvement and auto-detect their content as opposed to just being monospaced text, so it's going to be easier to just leave unskinned. The contrast is good anyway.

I really wish there was a way to not get notifications about every thread you've made. One more popular thread fills my notifications so I can't see this topic's notifications easily.

You can. Go to your profile, edit settings, notification preferences. I only get notifications for PMs and being mentioned now. I remember you couldn't change it back when we first switched to vanilla, but it's working now.
